XXVII. Who has a grievance?
Li Xing nodded, "No matter what, if we continue to buy gold now, we will definitely face a major crisis, so if we can't do it, we will stop first." After all, in the current situation, the goal we wanted has been achieved. ”
Zhao Xiu walked forward to the side of the plank road, held on to the railing, and looked down. The rows of wooden boxes had been built to a place less than a zhang from Zhao Xiu's feet, and the boxes were well sealed, but from the outside, it was impossible to see that the inside was full of gold. Zhao Xiu saw so much gold and felt that what Li Xing said made sense, the acquisition of gold had reached the limit, and it was very likely that his resource chain would be cut off if he continued to operate.
"The rudder can't be played too slowly, the strings can't be pulled too tightly, just do as you want, and stop at once. You seal the last of the gold in your hand first. After you are done, you have a good rest, and when you are rested, you will go down the mountain to help me solve the affairs of Liaozhou. ”
Li Xing raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Alas, I can finally rest, I have to sleep well, eat a few good meals, and find a few girls to accompany me, ahhahahahahaha"
"Hahaha, you're in your twenties and don't have a family, aren't you lonely?" Zhao Xiu also found it very interesting, among many subordinates, Li Xing is undoubtedly the most like Zhao Xiu, these two people seem to have been born confidants.
"You know, I'm not angry with that old guy yet, I'm the only seedling in our family, and if I don't get married, he doesn't want to continue the incense."
The old guy in Li Xing's mouth is the knot in his heart that he can never hide, his father, Li Song.
Li Song is now 54 years old and now holds the position of Liaozhou Zuo manager. Nominally, Zhao Xiu is Li Song's top boss, but in fact, in Liaozhou, Li Song's status is extremely high, and he is also one of the few marquis of Tianwu Kingdom, the Marquis of Fuping personally appointed by Emperor Tianwu, and has been hereditary for generations.
Zhao Xiu grinned, "Brother, I don't understand the contradiction between father and son, who told me to leave before I remember my father, but I think the big thing is just nonsense, in the eyes of those of us who have died once, death is the big thing, and the rest are fart." ”
Li Xing tried hard to open his eyes, looking listless, and when it came to his father Li Song's problem, he seemed even more unenergetic.
"Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and you don't know that my father is a person, on the surface, he can't kick a fart with three feet, but in fact, he has a lot of means secretly, and this old guy is getting older and more insidious, and he becomes a fine when he gets old. Don't talk about him, you finally came here, what, go down and see the chest full of gold? ”
Zhao Xiu originally wanted to come and see the mountains of gold, but when he came, he saw that Li Xing was as tired as his grandson, and he was not too embarrassed to trouble him.
"If you can hold on, let's go down and have a look."
Li Xing snorted, tears welling up in his eyes. "I know you're here to see the gold, how could you be disappointed? You don't know, I'm just like my father and I'm a big money fan, and when I see money, I immediately get up. Several times when I was sleepy, I went down and sat on the gold, and immediately refreshed! ”
"Hahaha."
Li Xing pulled Zhao Xiu down the plank road, and the wooden plank road was stepped on by two people. He was followed by a masked and silent blood.
The Dark Mountain is a secret lair that Zhao Xiu has painstakingly found, and the Dark Mountain is nothing more than an ordinary mountain among the mountains from the outside, and he can't see the mystery inside at all. But as soon as you enter the interior of the mountain, you will be amazed by the magic of the mountain.
The interior of the Dark Mountain has been almost hollowed out, leaving only the rock pillars that support the mountain. At the bottom of the mountain, a depth of dozens of zhang was dug down by hand. The entrance to the mountain is located on the mountainside, so in Zhao Xiu's eyes, he seems to be standing on the edge of a deep pit, and Zhao Xiu and Li Xing are walking around the edge of the pit to the bottom of the pit. The whole pit made the two of them look very small.
The slope of the plank road is not large, so the two of them walked a full circle before going down two zhang deep. Each level of the boardwalk has a huge platform set in a stone wall. At the end of the platform is a passage into each level of the cavern.
In the passage, there was a guard guarding the entrance of the cave, and this guard was also Zhao Xiu's descendant of the army, the Demon Guard. But the guards were different in that they weren't wearing masks, but their faces were exposed, and everyone could see what they were.
This is a rule set by Zhao Xiu, but all the demon guards stationed in the Dark Mountain must be dead soldiers who have served Zhao Xiu for more than five years and are absolutely loyal. They had been stationed in the Dark Mountain for four or five years, and nothing had gone wrong, and not a single one had left the place without permission, and none of them had ever discovered it.
The Dark Mountain is Zhao Xiu's home base.
Zhao Xiu and Li Xing went down to the platform, and in front of them were a mountain of wooden boxes. Li Xing walked to the front of one of the boxes, opened the lock lid of the box, and pushed up with both hands, and a golden light suddenly illuminated Zhao Xiu's face.
The box was full of golden gold, and the gold bricks were neatly lined up in this box, and there were no gaps at all. There were only a few candles in the entire cave, but after Li Xing opened the box, Zhao Xiu's eyes suddenly lit up, and the gold in the box only shone brightly by the faint light of the candle.
Li Xing looked at Zhao Xiu with a smile, patted the gold bricks in the box, and made a "bangbang" sound.
"Every day, the gold in the gold pit is more than hundreds of thousands of taels, and it is easy to do at the beginning, because the gold repurchased is in strips, or gold ingots, and we can directly put them in boxes. Later, we bought out all the gold on the market, and only the broken gold in the hands of the people and some golden sand remained. I can only order the craftsmen to refine the broken gold and gold sand into gold bricks, so that it is more convenient for us to pack and put them more efficiently. ”
When Zhao Xiu saw this box of gold, he immediately swept away his troubles, and was in a good mood, so he ran to the side of the box in three steps and two steps, and sat on the gold in the box under Li Xing's surprised gaze.
"Comfortable~" Zhao Xiu felt uncomfortable sitting on the box, so he simply lay on it, and his thin body was just right to lie on the box.
"How's it going, are you comfortable?" Li Xing was no longer sleepy-eyed, and asked with a smile.
"It's comfortable, it's very comfortable, and now that I think about it, it's really good to be a rich man, and it's not as interesting as money." Zhao Xiu looked intoxicated.
Li Xing walked around the platform, opening wooden boxes from time to time, and the boxes were all full of gold bricks without exception.
Zhao Xiu looked up at the top of the cave, drooping his legs, and resting under his head with a cloak and hat as a cushion.
"Hey, wake up, you said that we are all so rich, and we are still engaged in conspiracies and tricks, trying our best to seize power and struggle. Aren't we a little stupid, isn't it good to enjoy wealth? A few of us brothers, take the money to eat flowers and wine every day, play all kinds of fun, watch beautiful women, marry wives, how good. Ah, you say yes or no. Zhao Xiu lay on the box, crossed his legs, shook his head over and over again, and asked Li Xing over and over again.
After listening to what Zhao Xiu said, Li Xing stopped and lowered his head in contemplation.
"Sect Master, as the leader of our brothers, if you think so, the hearts of your brothers will be half cold. I know you're just whining, but after all, you're our sect master, and the sect master should be like the sect master. ”
Zhao Xiu was made to laugh by Li Xing's words. "There is too much pain in this world, if you don't have some fun, how can you live? You think everyone looks like you are a workaholic? I know that my brothers follow me to repay their kindness, and they are not afraid of death at all, but I can't be afraid of their death. Every now and then I have to have some fun with him. It also gives them a reason to live. ”
Li Xing didn't understand Zhao Xiu's thoughts, he only knew that he was Zhao Xiu's person, and he had the obligation to remind Zhao Xiu of something.
"You said that we have the money, and the weapon of the Liaozhou Manufacturing Bureau has also been made, why do you think I am still so unsure?" Zhao Xiu frowned and looked at Li Xing with a puzzled expression.
Li Xing was a little speechless when asked such a boring question.
"That's because you're about to meet a terrible group of opponents, none of whom you can deal with, all of them cunning and cunning. How? Lost faith? ”
", with you here, I dare to fight with him, let alone these old-fashioned guys, half of their bodies have been buried in the ground, and they are still blind. Also, they are cunning, insidious and cunning, brother, if you want to talk about treacherousness, insidious me Zhao Xiu is the first deserved. Zhao Xiu raised his head proudly.
Li Xing was provoked by Zhao Xiu's words. "Hehehe, it's the first time I've seen someone boast like this."
Zhao Xiu lay down enough, turned over and turned off the box, tidied up the clothes on his body, and walked towards the platform.
"I won't stay here at night, I have to rush back overnight, there is an accident in the provincial palace. You should also write a rest, tired these days. "Zhao Xiu doesn't want such a capable person to die of exhaustion.
Li Xing accompanied Zhao Xiu and walked out. "I'll send you."
Zhao Xiu is the sect master, Li Xing admires this young man in his heart, how many talents can he gather under his door, which many people can't do.
"No, it's not that I don't know the road, and besides, with blood with you, nothing will happen. Stay here and here. Zhao Xiu waved his hand and walked towards the cave, followed by a black-clothed blood mao behind him.
After Li Xing sent Zhao Xiu away, he sat on the ground, thinking about what Zhao Xiu said.
